Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
And watch your character, for it becomes your destiny."

Well, that’s a wrap on release week promotion for Born and Raised. It’s so phenomenally weird to wake up this morning at home and not in the back of a bus somewhere. On the bright side, releasing this album and getting back in touch with my fans has been something I’ve been waiting to experience for a long time now. I’m finally at a place in my life where I can truly appreciate the kindness and support, and you have shown me lots of it. Thank you for that.
As I understand it, the album is set to enter the charts at number one, which is just incredible on all your parts because there has been very little I’ve been able to do to promote it. In a world of schemes and strategies when it comes to selling something, you guys just bought music you trusted you’d like. You picked it up in the same way I made it… from the heart, no trickery. That is so cool and rare and all the marketeers in the world together can’t manufacture that. I am very grateful to you.
The making of this record was purposely undocumented, but there are a few iPhone videos and some photos to share. I figure I’ll do that here, and more often than I usually have in the past. Even if this album slides off the charts in a month, it doesn’t make it any less special to me, and we should all be digging this music together, like we would have (and will again) on stage.
Stay tuned…
with thanks and love
John
AMEN.

SURPRISE SURPRISE. <3
Nasanay ako na ako ang laging nag-eeffort.
Ako yung nag-iisip ng paraan,
para iparamdam sa ibang tao,
kung gaano sila kahalaga sa akin..
Ako yung mahilig gumawa ng surprises..
Dahil yung ngiti nila sa tuwing ginagawa ko yun?
Priceless.
It felt good to let them know they are loved.
But tonight was different.
Very different.
Ako yung binigyan ng effort.
Ako yung sinurpresa.
Sa akin pinaramdam na mahalaga ako..
Ako yung binigyan ng regalo..
Sa loob ng limang taon ng pagkakaibigan natin,
Never ko naimagine na gagawin mo to for me.
Honestly, I never thought you’d do it for anybody..
I never saw you as that kind of person..
You had your own way of making people feel important.
Kaya it never occurred to me,
That you are capable of doing something like this.
I must admit, hindi ko alam kung paano magre-react.
Like what I said,
I was used to being on the other side of the table.
Yung ako ang nakakakita at nakakatanggap ng ngiti.
Ako yung pinasasalamatan.
Kaya gulat na gulat ako with what you did.
Waited for me to get home for 4 hours,
Kahit di ka sigurado kung darating ako..
Kahit gutom ka na..
Kahit uhaw ka na..
Kahit pagod ka na..
Kahit alam ko, gustong gusto mo na matulog..
Hindi ka nag-give up.
I’m glad you waited.
It’s good to know na kahit matagal na tayo magkakilala,
Posible parin pa lang ako’y iyong masurpresa.
May mga bagay pa pala tungkol sayo na di ko pa alam.
Iba ka. Ibang iba ka talaga.
Di naman kita matitiis.
Alam kong alam mo yon.
